Arsenal vying with Real Madrid and Barcelona to sign 18-year-old Spanish talent

The race to sign Malaga star Antonio Cordero has intensified in recent weeks. Barcelona have been tracking the 18-year-old since the summer, while Real Madrid have since shown interest. However, it is not easy for either club to strike a deal as another European heavyweight has joined the race.

According to CaughtOffside, Arsenal are the latest side to keep an eye on Cordero, who is starting to emerge as a key player for Malaga this season. Mikel Arteta is a big fan of the young winger, who has also reportedly attracted interest from the likes of Manchester United, Bayern Munich and Juventus.

The race to sign Cordero in 2025 will undoubtedly be fierce. Malaga have certainly resigned themselves to losing their prized youngster, although it will be interesting to see whether he stays in Spain, with Real Madrid or Barcelona. If not, a move elsewhere in Europe beckons.
